Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After having dinner together at the clubhouse, the group of people came out laughing and chatting.
Zheng Lin had been inquiring about the affairs of Mei Shu and Lu Yan at school.
She felt that Mei Shu was much better than Zhou Li!
That girl seemed calculating, and Zheng Lin didn’t like her at all.
But Mei Shu was different.
She was intelligent but subtle, not making people feel guarded, and Zheng Lin was more willing to get close to her.
Before leaving, Zheng Lin took the initiative to exchange contact information with Mei Shu.
Once in the car, she quietly sent a message to Lu Yan, “Seize the opportunity! Sister supports you to pursue love!”
Lu Yan put away his phone with a suppressed smile, looking like a blushing, cute rabbit.
“What are you laughing at?” Mei Shu looked at him strangely.
Lu Yan quickly shook his head, “Nothing, really! Let me take you home!”
Feeling uneasy under Mei Shu’s gaze, Lu Yan hurriedly changed the subject.
However, Mei Shu grabbed his hand and said, “I have something to ask you.”
“What?” Lu Yan took a deep breath, nervous with sweaty palms.
But at that moment, Mei Shu brought up another man, “Lu Si… your little uncle, how has he been recently?”
In that instant, Lu Yan seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking. The burning heat on his face suddenly disappeared, and the joyful gleam in his eyes extinguished abruptly. “Why are you asking about him?”
Mei Shu, in her own state of bewilderment, didn’t notice the change in his tone. “I’m just asking casually. If you don’t want to talk about it, forget it!”
“Last time when I called you, you were actually with my little uncle, right? You lied to me, saying you were already home?” He referred to that rainy night.
Lu Yan was worried that Mei Shu would get angry if she heard his mother’s words. Moreover, it was raining heavily outside, and he was afraid something might happen to her, so he called her while getting dressed.
Unexpectedly, when the call connected, he heard Lu Si’s voice.
Mei Shu remained silent.
At that time, she just didn’t want to be misunderstood, but now it seemed to complicate things.
Lu Yan self-deprecatingly smiled and said, “Since you’re so worried about him, why don’t you call him yourself?”
“I don’t want to.” Mei Shu spoke the truth.
She still didn’t know how to face Lu Si.
His feelings for her were too intense and profound.
Making her unsure of how to respond.
Lu Yan held her hand and walked away.
Lin He quickly followed.
“Hey, where are you taking me?” Mei Shu didn’t struggle much. She knew Lu Yan wouldn’t harm her, but his current mood was not very stable.
“I’m taking you to see him.” Lu Yan seemed to be venting his frustration, not looking back, he directly took her to the car.
Mei Shu sighed deeply, turning to Lin He with a reassuring smile, “You go back first, I’ll be fine.”
“Be careful on your own then.” Lin He knew she was just in the way here and stopped following.
In the car, Mei Shu was unusually anxious, “Are we really going?”
The more she cared, the angrier Lu Yan became.
The collar of his shirt suddenly felt suffocating.
He unbuttoned two buttons with one hand, revealing delicate collarbones. The contour of his jaw became even more tense, “Yes, we must go. How will you know if he’s doing well if you don’t go? What if there’s another woman with him?”
“That’s impossible.” Mei Shu still trusted Lu Si’s character.
That man was so restrained. He didn’t seem like a normal man.
“How do you know it’s impossible? What makes you so sure?” Lu Yan angrily turned to stare at her.
Mei Shu’s heart skipped a beat, instinctively saying, “What’s wrong with you? Are you okay?”
“I’m perfectly fine!” He just wanted to see everything clearly today.
He refused to believe that, as his uncle, Lu Si would compete for a girlfriend with his nephew!
When they reached the entrance of the company, Lu Yan strode in first.
Seeing his imposing manner, the receptionist didn’t dare to stop him. She only reported to Secretary Jiang after he entered the elevator.
When Jiang He received the call, he was in the middle of training a new employee. Hearing that Young Master Yan had arrived with a young lady, his brows furrowed tightly, “You said Young Master Yan also brought a girl? What girl?”
He suddenly had a bad premonition.
At this moment, the annoyed voice of Si Ye came from the office, “Coffee! Jiang He!”
Jiang He suddenly felt a bit flustered.
He instructed the new secretary in front of him to quickly go and make coffee for Si Ye. Then, he rushed towards the elevator.
“Young Master Yan, why are you here?” Jiang He stood up straight to welcome Lu Yan and, upon seeing Mei Shu behind him, the turmoil in his heart turned into joy!
What a good day it was today!
Miss Mei personally came to see Si Ye!
Now that Si Ye was happy, he wouldn’t have to suffer anymore!
“Is my little uncle inside?” Lu Yan asked with a stern face, expressionless.
Jiang He quickly led the way, “Yes, yes, is there something you need from Si Ye? By the way, why are you with Miss Mei?”
“It’s my business who I’m with.” Lu Yan halted his steps, his face freezing.
Jiang He felt a tightening in his heart, sensing that Young Master Yan was in a bad mood today. He didn’t dare to say more, immediately opening the door to let them in..
